I wanted to create a funky, bohemic piece that was quite subtle, but still made an impression. The first part I actually painted while it was getting dark and my husband was wondering how I could paint without properly seeing the colours. I was however nicely surprised of the result and my mind wondered off to of old fresques in Pompei when I aged it, added birds, crowns, old writing etc.

It is in good vintage condition. As with most vintage items there can be some marks etc, which we find is what makes antique/vintage items so charming and characterful. I removed the old, rather boring wooden handle, and replaced it with a beautiful, ornate French style brass handle - adding a bit of elegance to the 1940s original plain design.

Despite its Boho style this bedside cabinet has an rustic elegance to it, making it just as nice in a contemporary home as in an old country cottage. Use it as bedside table in your bedroom, as a side table in your living room, hallway, bathroom etc.
